He]
WE have observed the time When he purged, and now time it is that you know the Physician who administers it: the Apostle tells you it is He] that is, Christ our Saviour, who seeing us labour in the pains and pangs of sin, he bows the heavens and comes down; he takes upon him our frailty, that we through him might have the remedy to escape hell fire. Come then, and behold the man, who undertakes this cure of souls;1 He cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills, saith Solomon in his Songs: and would you know his leaps, saith Gregory? 2See then how he leaps from his Throne to his Cratch, from his Cratch to his Cross, from his Cross to his Crown; downwards and upwards, like a Roe or a young Hart upon the mountains of spices.
